Go up one level in this thread


1. DB Programmers would have had access to Kasp games.

2. When you play someone, you usually have a look at their previous games as to
see their style of play. This is especially so for big matches.

I doubt Kasp would ever have played an unknown player in a match and not known
anything about them. This does not include Demonstrations against unknown weak
players. I mean big tourny's.

I think it was unfair, and I see the Deep Blue team in the way they ran the
whole series of matches as nothing more than a hit and run team. They were
scared, they kept everything to themselves. After they win, the pull the machine
apart. For all I know it could have been a series of GM's somewhere putting in
moves. Very Suspect all of it.
